The Bra gets a break!

IN: The Stick-it-together Fastener... OUT: Zips, hooks & eyes

THE BURR and the bra have now got together. The new Swiss idea that has revolutionised fastenings in the States has now made its bow in Paris-with the bra.

Christian Dior have taken the idea up and will be launching a new model bra very soon. This new sticker fastening cuts out zips, buttons, hooks and eyes, or oven safety pins.

HOW IT'S MADE

IT CONSISTS of two pieces of nylon that feel rather like one of those clinging the unilerlying motivation types of pejile. Even if you do burrs you find in the woods.

"Gourmet is another word for pig," he said. "I cannot stand the sort of person whose whole day is ruined by one bad mical. I've eaten the most terrible meals in the statellest homes but I'd never dream of snying "This duck is like a rock,' "'*

For all that, Mr. Gallico loves to cook.

I hate the ometour 'cook," he told me. "You know what 1 mean-George is doing hi Beef Stroganoff tonight, and it all ends on the ceiling with the guests hungry and angry.”

He also hates women cooks. "All women cooks I've ever known were crose and sour. They bang down the plates with a sniff and walk round with a martyred air. Why do they make publi a fuss about it?"-"

Traditional tea

The other was James Beard, top American cookery expert who has come here to track down the traditional English tea. So far he has eaten ond and a ball teas per day. His verdict:-
